Title : OpenPGP Extensions for Device Certificates

Abstract:
The OpenPGP Message Formats defined in RFC 4880 specify packet
formats and methods for combining those packets to form messages and
certificates. However RFC 4880 made an architectural decision that
keys are owned by users and must be self-certified. New use cases
have emerged where that is not the case. There is a desire to have
certificates that are not tied to a user (e.g. device certificates)
and may only have encryption keys so may not even be self
certifiable. This draft specifies extensions to (and updates) RFC
4880 that loosen the definitions of certificates in order to enable
userless certificates without self-certifications.
